Young Beef Calves Show Gains After Early Weight Loss

USDA researchers at Beltsville report identical twin calves aged 3 to 6 months can endure 3 months on submaintenance diets with limited energy yet recover with full feeding to produce economical future gains and high quality beef. The study involved 10 twin pairs, including both heifers and steers, across crossbred and purebred beef cattle.

Calf B Recovers Weight Fast During Restricted Feeding Study

In a USDA study of calves B and A and their ten co-twins, 18 month old Calf B weighed 708 pounds after rapid growth from 150 pounds at six months. Despite initial weight loss on low feed, Calf B reached 833 pounds after three extra months, with feed efficiency close to the co-twins. Submaintenance rations delayed some growth but all animals resumed normal gains on full feed.
